Intention

As an international student from Turkey, the currency rate between US Dollars and Turkish Lira is very important to me since all of my family's income is in Turkish Lira but all of my spending are in US Dollars including tuition and housing. So the rate changes are something both me and my friends in Turkey check a lot; and I've talked with other international students in Carnegie Mellon too and found out that they check the currency rate for their country's currency as well. These graphs are important in our lives to see how the rates are changing. My intention was to make a graph that makes the drop seem bigger than how it actually is.
